Our Mission and Values

Our Mission

To partner with national theological schools in equipping ministry leaders through distance learning, in their own language and culture, for global service.

Our Values

Biblical Integrity

We believe that the Bible is the sound, complete, and incorruptible foundation and framework for all that Horizon teaches and practices. Therefore we are committed to training, in the context of a learning community that reflects ongoing life transformation and the development of a biblical worldview, through a growing understanding of God’s Word.

Academic Excellence

We seek the glory of God in all that we do. Therefore we engage in an intense collaborative process of content development implemented through culturally informed proven educational principles and methods, subject to constant reflection and evaluation. In the ongoing development of knowledge, character and ministry skills, we also foster a commitment to life-long learning.

Cultural Engagement

We recognize that Christ’s Church is represented in the diverse languages and cultures throughout the world. Therefore we strive to identify and understand with our international partners the unique contexts that inform ministry training.

Accessible Training

We affirm God’s desire that His church around the world be wise stewards of all He has given them. Therefore we seek to offer our partners an affordable and sustainable educational model through distance learning, providing quality training to leaders active in ministry, a vast majority of whom currently do not have access to theological education in a traditional format.

Global Partnerships

We believe God values all members of the Body of Christ equally and is actively accomplishing His purposes in diverse ways through diverse cultures. Therefore we foster global partnerships, encouraging a spirit of interdependence, collaboration and sharing, that enrich the educational process.
